It sounds like things are going generally well for you. If the headaches were very frequent, taking a daily preventative medication may be a good idea. However, with headaches relatively infrequently (one or two times a month) and with a good response to Imitrex, medication at the time of the headache is probably the best form of treatment. There are other medications in addition to Imitrex that can be helpful that your doctor could prescribe if needed.
